    His friends around old Mullaghboy, and Holly Well may mourn,
    Round Dowra hills no more he'll roam he never will return
    Long long his loving wife may mourn and his dear orphan child
    They ne'er will behold that loving face that often on them smiled

    (VIII)
    But in Heaven we have our comfort he died a righteous man,
    His peace was made in Heaven and earth ere he came to that strand,
    As he had been on a pilgrimage of piety and love,
    Which did prepare his generous soul to dwell with the saints above.
